I DON'T WANT MUCH FOR CHRISTMAS

 

I don't want much for Christmas

What I want is quite naïve

And an unrealistic expectation

I just want everybody to be happy

I know it’s a forlorn hope

But miracles do happen at Christmas

THROUGHOUT THE YULETIDE SEASON

 

Throughout the yuletide season

In the light of the fireside glow

Christmas garlands are strung

Of Holly, Ivy, and Mistletoe

ON CHRISTMAS EVE, A NUTCRACKER

 

On Christmas Eve, a nutcracker

Is turned into a handsome Prince,

Clara saves him from the Mouse King

And go to the land of sweets and mints

There they dance around for a bit

Before the Prince takes Clara as his belle

And they marry and that’s The End

And that is the nutcracker in a nutshell


21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 303

There was a chandler making candles

For all the convent girls to handle

Where at night the Sister would shout

Its bedtime girls so candles out

ARE YOU WEARING GREEN TINSEL?

 

Are you wearing green tinsel?

Tied around your lustrous curls

Like a goddess of the woods

Are you one of the “nature” girls?

IT’S CHRISTMAS EVE

 

It’s Christmas Eve

The mood is merry

Listen to the sleigh bells

Here comes Mr C

SNIP! SNAP! CHRISTMAS

 

Snip! Snap! Dragon!

Here comes the flaming bowl

So let mischief take its toll

Just as festive Christmas comes

Snatch at the feast of plums

In amongst the Brandy’s flame

It’s our favourite Christmas game

Snip! Snap! Dragon!
